Ramadhan2014: Essence @ Sheraton Imperial

Each year the Pasar Ramadhan or night bazaars are definitely an amazing must attend during the fasting period. There is just so much good food and energy in the buzzling bazaars. And that is precisely what the all day dining restaurant Essence in Sheraton Imperial Kuala Lumpur are replicating this year fot he holy month.

Stalls are being set up to provide the mood (and food) of the happening Pasar Ramadhan. Of course family and kampung favourites for the season are also part of the extensive menu which includes Roti Canai, Chicken Briyani Rice, Murtabak, Whole Baby Lamb with Mandi Rice, Lebanese Sharwarma, Ayam Percik Terengganu, Ala Minute Asam Pedas Fish and Gulai Kawah.

The many live stations certainly adds some hustle and bustle to Essence but its all good and cool than to the air conditioned environment. There is also action on your side too if you like steamboats. Take your pick of ingredients and watch it cook before your eyes!

For those who want some variety, then there is also the Chinese and Japanese section that is rather extensive on its own too. My fave would have to be the local cookies and desserts. Its seriously extensive and I was actually nibbling away happily even before I started on the mains.

This vibrant and colourful Ramadhan is priced at RM118.00++ per person. It is available for dinner until 24th July 2014. SPG members can enjoy 20% discount off total food bill. If you plan to host a bigger gathering, Essence is offering a 35% discount for group bookings that are above 30 persons.

For those who prefer to break fast at home, then do check out one of my faves from Toastina Café & Bar (ground floor of Sheraton Imperial) to take away the Chicken Briyani Rice (RM15nett) and Lamb Briyani Rice (RM18nett). These are available from Monday to Friday from 4pm until 6pm of 24th July 2014.
